Viva Las Vegas / What’d I Say
Artist: Elvis Presley
Release: RCA Victor 47-8360 Viva Las Vegas / What'd I Say (45) WLP
Release Date: 4/28/1964
Coming Soon sleeve version. Very hard to find without a lot of ring wear. There is just a hint of wear on A side to the left of Elvis’ name. One will have to look hard for a nicer sleeve in my opinion. Record White label, NOT FOR SALE on two lines. Elvis Presley below spindle hole. WOL & DOL and some lite wear on A side label. Looks like it may have been played once or twice. Check the photos carefully and see what you think. And ask any questions. No returns or refunds. Coming soon more Elvis auctions.
“Viva Las Vegas" is a 1964 song recorded by Elvis Presley written by Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman for his film of the same name, which along with the song was set for general release the year after. Although Elvis Presley never performed the song live, it has since become one of his most popular songs and often performed by others. The RIAA certified the single disc "Viva Las Vegas/What'd I Say" gold on March 27, 1992, having sold 500,000 copies in the United States. The song was recorded on July 10, 1963. Released as a single in 1964 with the B-side "What'd I Say" from the same film, "Viva Las Vegas" charted separately from its B-side, reaching No. 29 on the Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart. The Elvis version of "What'd I Say" peaked at No. 21, the two sides having equivalent appeal in the marketplace. The song was published by Elvis Presley Music, Inc. In the years since, the song has become popular and often referenced in pop culture. In 2002, the city of Las Vegas requested Elvis Presley Enterprises, the company that handles Elvis-related music rights, to allow it to be the official song of the city. Negotiations stalled over the price. EPE had not controlled the copyright to the song since 1993, at which time it became the property of the families of the songwriters Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman.
